My problem with the Windows Photo Gallery is that when I import my movies
from the camcorder, and try to watch or view them, I get the message :this
video could not be displayed." I would like to try the solution that Dave
offered but when I am on the \Users\[user]\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows
Photo Gallery, I see 2 items which are as follows: NavTree.State and
Pictures.pd4. Hence I don't which one to highlight to delete. Could you
help me or is there anyone who knows the solution.
Any input is appreciated.
